An Imperial Star Destroyer, Avenger was part of a task force that searched for the Rebel forces after the Battle of Yavin. Under the command of Captain Needa, the Avenger was also present at the battle of Hoth, after which it followed the Millennium Falcon into an asteroid field. The ship sustained considerable damage, and was not prepared to capture the Falcon as it suddenly reappeared, a failure that cost the Avenger's captain his life at the hands of Darth Vader.
